Finished shawl and more

The finished shawl. It's finally finished. I promised another pic, so here it is in all it's glory. I'm very happy with it.As soon as my mother tells me that she is in her new place and gives me the new address, it will be in the mail on the way to her. I think I might need to make another one for me.

That dog you see is that little puppy that my hubby brought home several months ago. She's not so little. William was just so tired, he zonked out right where he was, rather than waiting till his bedtime a half hour later.

I haven't done any knitting today, but worked some more on spinning that lovely purple and black superwash. At this rate I might get to work with the yarn by Christmas. The stuff wants to spin pretty fine.

I wrote a couple poems yesterday. Haven't thought of titles for them yet, but once I do, I think I'll put them up here too.

I've been talking alot with a really good friend lately, whom I haven't seen in over 3 years. It's really nice to be able to keep in touch like that. It makes me feel that much closer to "home", which is definately something that Alabama has never felt like. It's also good to talk to someone, even online that I feel like I can tell anything too, and they won't make fun of me or think I'm weird. It's also nice to be appreciated, and to have the things I make/do appreciated as well.
